Inspired by beloved psychologists in the WSU Student Wellness Center, the Suspenders4Hope program supports those experiencing mental health struggles the same way that suspenders support your pants. Whether it’s through learning how to talk about mental health, knowing what resources are available, or sharing your story, Suspenders4Hope's goal is to create positive changes in Wichita and beyond.
Wichita State University’s #WeSupportU Suspenders4Hope campaign was founded on WSU’s campus in 2015 after receiving the SAMHA Campus Suicide Prevention grant. With its reach beyond just the university, the campaign has grown to include online and in-person evidence-based trainings, advocate programs, and additional resources such as Mental Wellness in the Classroom cards.
